Stupid people are everywhere and yes we have them in the hammock communityI've seen some horror stories online, people getting injured. Is this an actual big concern, or just a few stupid people, or what? What are the safety issues?
Main safety issues are not learning how to use your gear properly. Find a group hang to attend and let the folks know you a new hanger and want their input. Never been to a hang where there were not folks ready to help a new hanger,
I am 6ft 2 and 285+ lbs and my favorite hammock is the BlackBird ( not the XLC ) but as you are 6ft 5 you will probably find the XL a better fit. Go for the DL 1.7. It will give you more support and less give.
As to GE hammocks the ones I like are ones I had custom made by a company no longer in business. Go for at least 11ft long and about 64 to 66 inches wide.
